Answer:

No, Hooters is not required to hire Jason for a server position

Explanation:

Employment discrimination law, particularly the Civil Rights Act of 1964, prohibit discrimination based on certain characteristics or protected categories such as age, sex, religion, disability, pregnancy, national origin, etc. Federal and state laws prohibit discrimination in a number of areas, including recruiting, hiring, job evaluations, promotion policies, training, compensation and disciplinary action.

Employment discrimination or harassment in the private sector is not unconstitutional because Federal and most State Constitutions do not expressly give their respective government the power to enact civil rights laws that apply to the private sector.
